Better Nutrition, Jan, 2003
You already know that working out is good for the heart. But did you also know that there's a simple way to fix up those narrowed arteries? Flexibility is as important for the health of your arteries as it is for your limbs. When arteries and blood vessels become inflexible, they clog with plaque; blood flow is restricted, and a heart attack may result.
Try this simple daily routine to keep your arteries flexible: Take vitamin C. Within hours of taking it, blood flow through narrowed arteries can increase by as much as 10 percent, studies show. The prevailing theory is that this vitamin likely restores the blood vessels' ability to dilate.
